-2r-\left(-1\right)=4r-29
To find the opposite of 2r-1, find the opposite of each term.
-2r+1=4r-29
The opposite of -1 is 1.
-2r+1-4r=-29
Subtract 4r from both sides.
-6r+1=-29
Combine -2r and -4r to get -6r.
-6r=-29-1
Subtract 1 from both sides.
-6r=-30
Subtract 1 from -29 to get -30.
r=\frac{-30}{-6}
Divide both sides by -6.
r=5
Divide -30 by -6 to get 5.
